Created by the merger of La Union Espiritista and Luz del Porvenir, both of Barcelona, in 1900, a merger that the new journal grandly welcomed:

"Luz y Union is the consequence of the loving kiss of two soul mates; the fusion of two hearts that in unison beat at the impulses of the holy ideal that embodies the progress of all civilizations--the ideal which is the indispensable yeast to knead the regeneration of rational beings, the ideal that we know as ‘Spiritism.'"

In 1902 it merged with the Revista de Estudios Psicologicos (the former Revista Epiritista) to form Luz y Union, Revista de Estudios Psicologicos. With no. 4 of 1914, the journal changed its name to Luz, Union y Verdad. Navarro Murillo resigned in 1903 to found his own journal, La Evolucion. Like many other journals of the time the journal had "official," "doctrinal" (Kardecist), "mediumistic," and "literary" sections to cater to wider audiences, and included short reviews of its contemporary journals in French, Spanish and Portuguese. As enthusiasm for international psychical research waned, the journal became increasingly the repository of news of local spiritualist groups and activities, while occasionally making room for advertisements for the likes of Prentice Mulford's works in translation.
